Chapter 240
Immediately afterwards, everyone boarded an elongated electric car with a very narrow ride space. The emptiness between the two daoist sects was just the sandwich between the sandwich biscuits. It's the same crowding, making everyone quite uncomfortable.
The environment of the entire Underground City is narrow and dark. Wang Junpeng always feels that he has run into the land of underground dwarves in fantasy novels. These short "Pangolin" are the so-called "dwarves".
In his eyes, living here would be very depressing, but the residents of this Underground City are already quite used to the local life, thinking that this is a hometown full of safety.
Along the way, he saw various deserted areas and abandoned buildings.
"Only when the population is drastically reduced will this kind of abandoned buildings be caused..." Wang Junpeng pondered secretly in his heart.
Has there been a large-scale war?
"Or... natural disasters and man-made disasters?"
He carefully observed the surroundings, and occasionally saw a few Pangolins, watching curiously from the side of the road, the overall atmosphere was still quite peaceful , And there is no tension after the disaster.
"It doesn’t have to be war, so what is it, class solidification? End-of-life?"
Unconsciously, Wang Junpeng’s face is already quite solemn, he is almost certain that this civilization It's the kind of civilization that has completely declined and stepped into mediocrity.
There is almost no way to hide this decline!
Even this group of Gliese people have become accustomed to it, too lazy to cover up.
Wang Junpeng couldn't help feeling waves of rejoicing and embarrassment when he thought that a civilization that could have completely defeated mankind had fallen into what it is now under the impact of time.
Fortunately, they came so late for a few years...
It’s also not right... This civilization tens of thousands of years ago, when mankind was still in the primordial period, it has already declined. .
What is worrying is-the banality trap in the universe is really terrifying to the extreme!
Wang Junpeng can't help being deeply worried about the current high-spirited and vigorous, rapidly rising new human civilization.
Nothing rises forever.
Hasn't the humanity on Earth already declined drastically? This decline is not a decline in technology, but a decline in ideology and social structure. The entire civilization has become a mass of scattered sand, and there is no way to complete super-large-scale projects...
The nouns of the series could not help but jump out: environment, evolutionary defects, ideology, and...new civilization history?
Wang Junpeng couldn't help but laugh at himself deeply. When did he become so noble and want to think about things tens of thousands of years from now?
What happened to humans back then, and what does it have to do with yourself?
Licking his dry lips, a question posed in front of him, and the other party exposed the fact, what exactly...what do you want to do?
No one is whispering in the earphones. On the one hand, it is to ensure etiquette and to make comments on other people’s homes. It is no different from a fool; on the other hand, it is afraid of being monitored, in case it is caused by gossip. In the war between the two sides, even if these diplomats commit suicide, they are not enough to make up for their faults.
Half an hour later, I arrived at the station.
The living area prepared by the Gliese people for humans is not too large, about 100 square meters. The air composition and atmospheric pressure inside are similar to the Earth’s atmosphere, and they can live normally without wearing a space suit.
The only difference is that the gravity here is slightly larger than that of Earth. It feels like carrying a ten kg sandbag on the back. Overall, it’s a bit laborious, but it’s better to get used to it.
Wang Junpeng picked up a helmet-like communication device on the bedside table. It is a VR device, which is said to be used to experience "sensory tube movies."
Trying hard, I found that my head was too big, and I was a little panicked. He quickly put it down and looked at other things in the room, including some very strange decorations, various electronic screens, service robots, etc., as well as some small toys, books, everything.
"It seems that this civilization knows how to enjoy... hehe, enjoying life, is it the commonality of every civilization?"
The daily tasks of these diplomats, It is to talk with some Gliese people to understand each other's ideology, and by the way, was run to inspect a small part of the living area and industrial area.
Wang Junpeng discovered that it may be due to the work and rest of life. This civilization is really idle, and the government's organizational ability is not high.
The people have very few working hours. Basically, they just do what they want instead of falling down. However, the productivity of this civilization is indeed pretty good. Even if the people do not do much work, they can easily satisfy the survival of all the population.
When investigating, many people will look at them and these aliens curiously, and even come up to have a few conversations, asking what kind of civilization human civilization is, whether they will attack them, and so on.
Wang Junpeng quickly grasped more information during the non-stop routine.
"I have to say... Your human race is really energetic. You only need to sleep for eight hours a day, and then you can be awake for a long time. Oh, yes, this is the same as your planet Rotation is related. Rest at night and awake during the day."
"We are here in the eternal dusk, and our work and rest habits are usually rested for ten days and then awake for a day or two. It is much better now. Now, with a unified work and rest, placed one hundred thousand years ago, I fell asleep when I wanted to sleep, and woke up when I wanted to wake up. It was a mess."
This senior Gliese official was slightly envious. Said.
Immediately afterwards, it rejected the idea: "Unfortunately, the consequence of your energetic energy is that your lifespan is too short. In Ancient Times, your average lifespan was only 30 years old... It’s incredible...it’s so pitiful."
Wang Junpeng nodded and said: "You are right. We are in Ancient Times, not the top predators of the food chain, and the struggle for survival is fierce and unusual. Because of the existence of oxygen, The trees in the forest have a height of more than ten meters. The largest herbivore elephant has a mass of several tons, as well as tigers and lions... These beasts are not our strength to match."
" It is because of aerobic breathing that such a beast has evolved!"
"Oxygen...ah, I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing." The Gliese diplomat heard the phrase , As if thinking of something, he shook his head slightly.
Wang Junpeng exaggeratedly said: "Yes, oxygen! In more ancient times, one or two billion years ago, because of the very high oxygen concentration, there existed a creature called a dinosaur that could possess A mass of hundreds of tons! The tallest dinosaur can reach 100 meters!" Seeing this Gliese man’s surprised expression, Wang Junpeng bossed shamelessly and said: "However, the size of the size is not important. The length of lifespan is not important, wisdom is more important. Many of our great men have made important achievements when they were young, even their limbs are paralyzed, relying only on their smart brains..."
"That's right! Your words are too correct! No matter how great the power is, it is impossible to compare to an excavator." The Gliese diplomat agreed.
Wang Junpeng sighed with emotion, and even the goose bumps came out: "Yes, in a limited life, making more contributions to the entire civilization is the survival philosophy of each of us. "
What an interstellar joke!
If it were not for the pressure of survival, for a better life, who would be willing to go to work? Human beings are self-interested creatures. Even Wang Junpeng came to be an interstellar diplomat for the sake of face, honor or money...
However, if the entire civilization can become better, it will be a little sacrifice of personal interests. Not bad... But just a little... Wang Junpeng felt that he was going to be brainwashed by himself.
This senior Gliese official seemed to be shocked by Wang Junpeng’s rhetoric, and asked: "Right, don’t individuals in your civilization engage in entertainment? For example, art..."
p>"Art, of course!"
"The meaning of life is not to feel the passage of time? I personally plant a small grass and watch it grow up, blossom, bear fruit, Withering...There is infinite, natural philosophical truth in this place itself."
"This is how our life is, isn't it? With birth, there will be death."
"Our Saint once said that the deceased are like a husband, and they don’t give up day and night...Meaning, time is like running water."
The senior Gliese official was extremely excited by him. , It’s like meeting a real soulmate: "Yes, there are similar words among our great men, time is like a typhoon, and every typhoon is different..."
